Backstory:

Golden Garage was formed in 2011 in the heartland of Wisconsin. The group first came together when high school friends Jonah Flint (vocals and guitar) and Lucy Grey (bass) met up with drummer Zach Harris at a local music festival. With their shared passion for music and a communal love for the style of the 60s and 70s rock bands, they decided to form their own band. They started rehearsing in Flint’s father’s old garage, which the band later dubbed as the “Golden Garage” due to its rusty, yellowish hue. This name would later become the moniker of the band, symbolizing their roots and humble beginnings.

“Rusted Dreams”

Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
G D Em
In this golden garage, we found our kin,
C G D
Among the rusted dreams, where we begin.
G D Em
Music was our solace, and the strings our skin,
C G D
With every note, we let the world in.

(Chorus)
G D Em
Golden Garage, our sacred ground,
C G D
Where our rusted dreams are found.
G D Em
Golden Garage, in your embrace,
C G D
We found our rhythm, we found our pace.

(Verse 2)
G D Em
Through every riff, we told our tale,
C G D
Of wild dreams, that never fail.
G D Em
In this golden garage, our music soared,
C G D
Creating melodies, the world adored.

(Chorus)
G D Em
Golden Garage, our sanctuary,
C G D
Where our music set us free.
G D Em
Golden Garage, in your hold,
C G D
We found our story, we found our bold.
